The Mobile Fire Rescue Department was dispatched to 2310 Taylor Avenue on December 27, 2012 around 12:11PM.
Mobile fire units reported on the scene at 2310 Taylor Avenue with fire and smoke gushing from the single story residence.
Before firefighters arrived fire medics on the scene were able to rescue two cats before the smoke got too thick for them to rescue any of the other cats.
When firefighters went into the home to extinguish the fire thee cats were rescued and brought outside to safety.
A mobile fire investigator was also dispatched to the fire at 2310 Taylor Avenue to investigate the cause of the fire.
The Christmas tree in the living room could have been a probability of where the fire started according to the home owner.
No civilians or firefighters were apparently injured before, during or after the fire at the scene of 2310 Taylor Avenue.
The fire at 2310 Taylor Avenue inflected damages into the thousands of dollars to the home.
The five cats proved the theory that cats have nine lives and survived to see another day.

French India is a general name for the French establishments set up by the French East India Company in India from the second half of the 17th century onward, and officially known as the Établissements français dans l'Inde from the resumption of French rule in 1816 to their de facto incorporation into the Union of India in 1947 and 1954.[1] They included Pondichéry, Karikal and Yanaon on the Coromandel Coast, Mahé on the Malabar Coast, and Chandernagor in Bengal. French India also included several loges (subsidiary trading stations that all European East India companies maintained in a number of Indian towns), but after 1816 these were to be nominally French only.
The total area amounted to 510 km2 (200 sq mi), of which 293 km2 (113 sq mi) belonged to the territory of Pondichéry. In 1936, the population of the colony totaled 298,851 inhabitants, of which 63% (187,870) lived in the territory of Pondichéry.[2]
France was the last of the major European maritime powers of the 17th century to enter the East India trade in a significant way. Six decades after the foundation of the English and Dutch East India companies (in 1600 and 1602 respectively), and at a time when both companies were multiplying factories on the shores of India, the French still didn't have a viable trading company and a single permanent establishment in the East.
Historians have been pondering the reasons why France was so late in entering the fray. They cite geopolitical circumstances such as the inland position of the capital, the size of the country itself, the numerous internal custom barriers, the lack of cohesiveness of the merchant communities of the Atlantic coast set in their parochial ways and reluctant to invest significantly in a large-scale company that trade with the distant East Indies called for.[3][4]
The first French expedition to India is believed to have taken place in the first half of the 16th century, during the reign of François I, when two ships were fitted out by some merchants of Rouen to trade in eastern seas; they sailed from Le Havre and were never heard of again. In 1604 a company was granted letters patent by Henri IV, but the project failed. Fresh letters patent were issued in 1615, and two ships went to India, only one returning.
From 1658, François Bernier (1625–88), a French physician and traveler, was for several years the personal physician at the court of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb.
La Compagnie française des Indes orientales (French East India Company) was formed under the auspices of Cardinal Richelieu (1642) and reconstructed under Jean-Baptiste Colbert (1664), sending an expedition to Madagascar. In 1667 the French India Company sent out another expedition, under the command of François Caron (who was accompanied by a Persian named Marcara), which reached Surat in 1668 and established the first French factory in India.[5][6]
In 1669, Marcara succeeded in establishing another French factory at Masulipatam. In 1672, Saint Thomas was taken but the French were driven out by the Dutch. Chandernagore (present-day Chandannagar) was established in 1692, with the permission of Nawab Shaista Khan, the Mughal governor of Bengal. In 1673, the French acquired the area of Pondicherry from the qiladar of Valikondapuram under the Sultan of Bijapur, and thus the foundation of Pondichéry was laid. By 1720, the French had lost their factories at Surat, Masulipatam and Bantam to the British.
On February 4, 1673, Bellanger, a French officer, took up residence in the Danish Lodge in Pondichéry and the French Period of Pondichéry began. In 1674 François Martin, the first Governor, started to build Pondichéry and transformed it from a small fishing village into a flourishing port-town. The French were in constant conflict, in India, with the Dutch and the English. In 1693 the Dutch took over and fortified Pondichéry considerably. The French regained the town in 1699 through the Treaty of Ryswick, signed on September 20, 1697.
From the beginning until 1741, the objectives of the French, like the British, were purely commercial. During that period, the French East India Company peacefully acquired Yanam (about 840 kilometres or 520 miles north-east of Pondichéry on Andhra Coast) in 1723, Mahe on Malabar Coast in 1725 and Karaikal (about 150 kilometres or 93 miles south of Pondichéry) in 1739. In the early 18th century, the town of Pondichéry was laid out on a grid pattern and grew considerably. Able governors like Pierre Christophe Le Noir (1726–35) and Pierre Benoît Dumas (1735–41) expanded the Pondichéry area and made it a large and rich town.
Soon after his arrival in 1741, the most famous governor of French India, Joseph François Dupleix began to cherish the ambition of a French territorial empire in India in spite of the opposition of his far-away superiors and the French government that didn't want to provoke the British. Dupleix's ambition clashed with British interests in India and a period of military skirmishes and political intrigues began and continued even in periods when France and Great Britain were officially at peace. Under the command of the Marquis de Bussy-Castelnau, Dupleix's army successfully controlled the area between Hyderabad and Cape Comorin. But then Robert Clive arrived in India in 1744, a British officer who dashed the hopes of Dupleix to create a French empire India.
After a defeat and failed peace talks, Dupleix was summarily dismissed and recalled to France in 1754.
In spite of a treaty between the British and French not to interfere in local politics, the intrigues continued. For example, in this period the French were also expanding their influence at the court of the Nawab of Bengal, and expanding their trade volume in Bengal. In 1756, the French encouraged the Nawab (Siraj ud-Daulah) to attack and conquer the British Fort William in Calcutta. This led to the Battle of Plassey in 1757 where the British decisively defeated the Nawab and his French allies, and extended British power over the entire province of Bengal.
Subsequently France sent Lally-Tollendal to regain the French losses and chase the British out of India. Lally arrived in Pondichéry in 1758, had some initial success and razed Fort St. David in Cuddalore District to the ground in 1758, but strategic mistakes by Lally led to the loss of the Hyderabad region, the Battle of Wandiwash, and the siege of Pondicherry in 1760. In 1761 Pondichéry was razed to the ground by the British in revenge and lay in ruins for four years. The French had lost their hold now in South India too.
In 1765 Pondichéry was returned to France after a peace treaty with Britain in Europe. Governor Jean Law de Lauriston set to rebuild the town on the old foundations and after five months 200 European and 2000 Tamil houses had been erected. In 1769, the French East India Company, unable to support itself financially, was abolished by the French Crown, who took responsibility for administering the French colonies in India. During the next 50 years Pondichéry changed hands between France and Britain with the regularity of their wars and peace treaties.

In 1816, after the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars, the five establishments of Pondichéry, Chandernagore, Karaikal, Mahe and Yanam and the loges at Machilipattnam, Kozhikode and Surat were returned to France. Pondichéry had lost much of its former glory, and Chandernagore dwindled into an insignificant outpost north of the rapidly expanding British establishment of Calcutta. Successive governors tried, with mixed results, to improve infrastructure, industry, law and education over the next 138 years.
By decree of the January 25, 1871, French India was provided with an elective general council (Conseil général) and elective local councils (Conseil local). The results of this measure were not very satisfactory, and the qualifications for and the classes of the franchise were modified. The governor resided at Pondichéry, and was assisted by a council. There were two Tribunaux d'instance (Tribunals of first instance) (at Pondichéry and Karikal) one Cour d'appel (Court of Appeal) (at Pondichéry) and five Justices de paix (Justice of the Peace). The agricultural produce consisted of rice, earth-nuts, tobacco, betel nuts and vegetables.
The independence of India in August 1947 gave impetus to the union of France's Indian possessions with former British India. The lodges in Machilipatnam, Kozhikode and Surat were ceded to India in October 1947. An agreement between France and India in 1948 agreed to an election in France's remaining Indian possessions to choose their political future. Governance of Chandernagore was ceded to India on 2 May 1950, then it was merged with West Bengal state on 2 October 1955. On November 1, 1954, the four enclaves of Pondichéry, Yanam, Mahe, and Karikal were de facto transferred to the Indian Union and became the Union Territory of Puducherry. The de jure union of French India with India did not take place until 1962, when the French Parliament in Paris ratified the treaty with India.

The expression Inde française was not often used as it was found too grandiose since the territory of French India was minuscule, particularly compared to British India. Among the population and in the press, the expression Comptoirs de l'Inde was (and is still) universally used. However, a comptoir is a trading post and therefore not a very appropriate word to denote the French possessions in India, which were colonial possessions rather than mere trading posts.

For a guy who just had $10 million in art and his Porsche ripped off, Jeff Gundlach was impressive on CNBC
SoCal's new bond king, Jeff Gundlach, is missing one of the these: a 2010 Porsche Carrera 4S. Along with $10 million in art and a few bottles of wine.
There are three big names in bonds these days, and they're all in Southern California. Together, Bill Gross and Mohamed El-Erian run Newport Beach-based PIMCO, the world's largest bond fund, overseeing a jaw-dropping $1.8 trillion in assets. Meanwhile, former '80s rocker Jeff Gundlach has been coming on strong in the past year.
His L.A. firm, DoubleLine Captial, has grown significantly, with now more than $40 billion under management. Gundlach's old firm, TCW (which he left in a cloud of controversy in 2009), is also in the news: It's being bought by the Carlyle Group, one of the world's biggest private equity firms.
PIMCO is in the midst of much speculation about whether El-Erian will be able to run the find as effectively as Gross once Gross decides to call it quits. This has created plenty of opportunity for Gundlach, who was already well known for his ability to make piles of money, to position DoubleLine as a better, faster PIMCO and a smarter, punkier TCW. Back in May, Businessweek's Roben Farzad captured the meteoric ascent of DoubleLine, which has gone from zero to $40-ish billion since 2010, and Gundlach, the new "bond king."
A Labor Day story about one Southern Californian's career change
The housing boom was good to Southern California — while it lasted. But when the bubble popped, our unemployment rate skyrocketed. In a state with a jobless rate near 11 percent, a number of our cities are above that. And as most everyone knows, the downturn hit the building trades hard.
What do you do when you've been exposed to real estate's ups and downs for much of a career? What you hear all the time when talking to economists who follow the job market in Southern California is: If only we could take all those unemployed construction workers and turn them into healthcare workers.
But of course you can't turn carpenters into nurses overnight. I decided to try to find someone who'd transitioned out of the building trades toward "the helping professions," however, using our Public Insight Network. While I didn't find a guy who had been hammering houses together before the financial crisis, I did find someone who was connected to the real estate market when the bottom fell out. And who decided to explore explore a new career in healing.
Zillow is calling a housing bottom. What is Zillow talking about?
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
A construction worker on the top of a home under construction at a new housing development on in Petaluma, California. If we have hit bottom, we may start seeing more of this kind of activity.
Zillow, the online real estate service, has called a bottom for the U.S. housing market. Literally. This is from today's release:
Home values in the United States have reached a bottom. The Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI) rose on an annual basis for the first time since 2007, increasing 0.2 percent year-over-year to $149,300, according to Zillow's second quarter Real Estate Market Reports. Values have risen for four consecutive months.
A rise of 0.2 percent may not be terribly significant, so take this all with a healthy grain of salt — and an awareness that Zillow, as Chicago Now's Gary Lucido points out, indexes home values based on its own metrics, rather than on actual sales, as does the important Case-Shiller index.
Case-Shiller for May comes out next week, so you can look at Zillow's pronouncement and say, "Hmmm...interesting timing!" And you'd be on to something, because Case-Shiller has been signalling at least the formation of a bottom in U.S. housing prices for a few months now.
Is the bottom history? Southern California home prices continue to move up
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
Pedestrians are reflected in a window as they walk by a sign displaying mortgage rates inside a Bank of America office on June 7, 2012 in San Francisco. Mortgage rates are at record lows and home prices are rising in Southern California.
In April, Southern California saw a 3.6 percent year-over-year increase in the median house price, to $290,000, according to DataQuick, a company that tracks housing data. In May, that trend — if you can call two consecutive months and trend — improved: the median price moved up 5.4 percent, to $295,000.
The good news here is that we're no longer seeing price deflation. In March, were weren't seeing very much of a year-over-year price decline — it was a barely perceptible 0.2 percent. But it was there. It was worse in February. In fact, the median price didn't increase in Southern California for two years: the April uptick was the first sign of life.
But before we get to excited, it's worth noting that prices are still dauntingly off their 2007 highs. That was a bubble, of course. But what we need to see now is a sustainable trend of year-over-year price increases. This will remove the risk of a return to deflating home prices, which can be reinforcing: buyers expect prices to fall in the future, so they don't buy today, and that creates a disastrous spiral. It doesn't matter how far interest rates fall. Savvy buyers avoid investing in a declining asset. Smart buyers invest in a rising asset while it's still cheap and they can borrow cheaply to buy it.
Southern California house prices: It's deflation, folks

A for sale sign is posted in front of house on September 15, 2011 in Glendale, California. Sales in California are on the upswing, but prices are unstable.
DataQuick has crunched the numbers on March housing sales and prices in Southern California. There's good news and bad news. From my perspective, the bad news is much more bad than the good news good.
March sales of newly built homes rose almost 9 percent from a year earlier, marking the second consecutive month with a year-over-year gain. But March's new-home tally was still the second-lowest for that month in DataQuick's records back to 1988. Last month's sales of existing (not new) single-family detached houses were the highest for a March since 2010, while resale condo sales were the lowest for that month since 2009.
The median price paid for a Southland home last month was $280,000, up 5.8 percent from $264,750 in February but down 0.2 percent from $280,500 in March 2011. The March median was the highest since the median was also $280,000 last September. The year-over-year decline in the March median was the smallest since February 2011, when the $275,000 median was unchanged compared with a year earlier.
Last month's median was 13.4 percent above the low point for the current real estate cycle – $247,000 in April 2009 – and 44.6 percent below the $505,000 peak in mid 2007.

Downtown Delray Beach
Delray Beach, FL 33444
- Garage, Street, Valet
New Times Broward-Palm Beach's Description
Anyone who says South Florida's dining scene is dead just needs to show up in downtown Delray on a weekend night and take notice. In that stretch of Atlantic Avenue between Swinton Avenue and the Intracoastal is a wealth of restaurants doing creative things with food. With trendy restaurants like the Office, and Max's Harvest, the city's got swank and then some, with posh joints like 32 East and Vic & Angelo's leading the charge. And for a high-end small-plates, beer, and tapas bar, Tryst delivers charming plates with easy-to-swallow prices. Even ethnic dining has made a big splash in Delray. Indie joint Bamboo Fire has drawn in gobs of foodies with its honest take on island food, while Cabana el Rey has earned fans for its homey Cuban cuisine. You could eat for weeks in Delray and never run out of options — breakfast at Atlantique Cafe followed by lunch at Jimmy's Bistro? Or maybe sushi at Yama before drinks and tunes at Dada? The options are wide open in this gourmet paradise.

Welcome to my thread.
Thank you for writing and for your compliments.
And to Kikibalt---
Thank you so much for finding these old articles to post. I thought I was the only one that had them. You sure have a large collection of boxing pictures and newspaper clippings.
It is interesting to see the comment made by Roberto Duran, that he was going to fight the winner of Heair-Carmona fight. In fact, it was that very same night that Jacky Mccoy asked Duran's manager for a Gonzalez-Duran fight, but his manager said, "You guys keep your title(WBC) and we'll keep ours(WBA).

What great photos and articles Champ, they bring back wonderful memories.
You were one of the best in my book.
It's terrific to see a great champ that I followed closely back in the day, is so celebrated here. As he should be. I had a lot of thrills watching your fights, Sr. Gonzalez.
It is nice to hear from you.Thank you for your compliments. Those photos and articles bring alot of memories to me as well. It was such a special time in my life.
I'm looking forward to meeting you one day.

Welcome to my thread! I"m glad to know you followed my fights and that you had alot of thrills watching them. I wish I could say the same. LOL The only time I had a thrill was at the end of the fight when the referee raised up my hand to announce that I had won the fight.

It has been a very sad day for me today. This morning I received a phone call from Carlos Palomino informing me that Mando Ramos had passed away this morning. Mando's wife was not able to wake him this morning. He apparently had died in his sleep. It is hard to believe. We were all together last week Friday for our induction into the Legends of Boxing Museum at the American Sports University in San Bernadino. Besides being my stablemate he was my long time friend. May he rest in peace.
El Gato

Mando was fortunate to have such a devoted and loyal friend as you and Carlos. I am so sorry to learn of this. I had many Emails back and forth with him and he always showed great warmth and respect.
From Frank's thread:
Re: Frankie & Tony Baltazar
Los Vatos
By Ted Sares: Hey vatos; Do you know who the best fighter in the world is pound for pound? Hands down, vatos, hands down! Los jabs, los hooks, los uppercuts...Mando Ramos!" --Edward James Olmos' 1992 film, "American Me".
He was a man of many great qualities…He had the rough and tough outer exterior of a fighter. But inside, he had a pure heart and a gentle soul. He was a great champion in the ring, but he was an even greater champion in life. He helped a lot of inner-city kids. --Mando Ramos Jr.
The California boxing connection is a strong one and the ex-boxers meet regularly. When Mando Ramos sadly passed away this week, the connection evidenced itself front and center. Superstars such as, Alberto Davila, the Baltazar boys, the Sandoval's, Bobby Chacon, Frankie Duarte, Paul Gonzalez, Danny "Little Red " Lopez, Arturo Frias, Genaro "Chicanito" Hernandez, and Oscar DeLaHoya expressed their grief and shock..
Many of these fighters came out of the Los Angeles Junior Golden Gloves tournaments. All became world class professionals. Some became World Champions. Frankie Baltazar, 40-3-1, was one tough duded and so was his brother Tony "The Tiger,"38-7-1. Both were inducted into the California Boxing Hall of Fame in 2006, along with Carlos Palomino
Rudolfo "El Gato" Gonzalez finished with a career mark of 81-7 (70 KOs) and won the WBC lightweight title in 1972 when he stopped rugged Chango Carmona in 13 rounds. "El Gato" was an immensely popular boxer who performed regularly to overflow crowds at the Olympic Auditorium.
John Jr. Montes, exciting bomber Jaime Garza, Ruben "The Maravilla Kid" Navarro, Raul Rojas, Paul Vaden, Alberto "Superfly" Sandoval and many others too numerous to list thrilled fans in the Los Angeles. Area for years as did the late Keeny Teran and Art Aragon.
Mando Ramos-Sugar Ramos-1970
Mando Ramos was pure 100% L.A fighter. Indeed, twenty-seven of his forty-nine fights were held in the storied Olympic Auditorium. There was something special about him; he was able to connect with and capture the hearts of Mexican-American boxing like few others. Enrique Bolanos, Art Aragon, Keeny Teran, Danny Lopez and Bobby Chacon did it as well. And like Jerry Quarry, he had an abundance of charisma. Lopez and Chacon and even Aragon before them were tremendous box-office attractions, but what was really incredible was that by just the age of eighteen, young Mando virtually owned the Olympic.
On February 18, 1969, Ramos avenged an earlier defeat by stopping Carlos Teo Cruz in the eleventh round. This occurred three months after his 20th birthday and made him the youngest boxer in history to win the World Lightweight Championship.
The rest of the story reads like a roller coaster ride and while it needs to be told, this is a time to mourn someone special, someone who was a beloved member of Los Vatos. Suffice it to say that after checking himself into a rehabilitation clinic in the early '80s, he became clean and sober and remained so the last twenty-five years. He started Boxing Against Alcohol and Drugs (BAAD).
Rest in Peace.

If you have a picture of Leon, Guanajuato could you please post it here? I would love to se it. It was in this town on February 4th of 1960 when I was 15 years old that I fought the State of Guanajuato champion, Juan Arias. I was able to knock him out in the first round.
The town is beautiful. Before you get to town there is a statue that you see on a mountain of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It is about 60 or 70 feet tall.

Hey Frank,

Nice photos, by the way, of the church.
Have a good one,
Thank you for posting the pictures of Leon, Guanajuato. It is such a beautiful city, especially the churches.
I am so happy to know that you have presented my portrait that you painted to the cultural center in Jiquilpan. I am honored and I want to go there to visit as soon as possible. It was so nice to have your granddaughter present it to the director, Mr. Leyva.

hey champ,
i don't post here much anymore, but, i hope you are well.
i still have not forgotten the times i saw you fight. after you beat robertson and navarro i knew chango had no chance at you.
i still remember the headline the day after you won the title.... " gonzalez a 3 t0 1 virtuoso ". i'll never forget that nite and i know you never will. to have jackie mccoy and cannon ball with you as well as the still present jesse reid.... great nite. salud.
does Mr Gonzalez still post on here?
Today has been a sad day for my hometown Guadalajara and for the whole country of Mexico.
My friend and stablemate Efren "Alacran" Torres died this morning. He and I started training on the same day at the Police Station in the City of San Andres, about twenty miles south of downtown Guadalajara in July of 1959. My cousin, Jose Becerra taught us both the left hook to the liver and all the classic boxing moves he knew. What he taught us was enough for me and Alacran Torres to start winning fights. The two of us were racing to see who could win more knockouts in a row.
In my opinion Alacran was one of the best Flyweight World Champions that Mexico has ever had.
Perhaps many of you remember his fights against Susumu Hanagata and Chartchai Chionoi. Those were outstanding fights. Fights like that you don't see anymore.
I just saw Alacran Torres in Guadalajara in November, 2009 where they placed our pictures and a star in the beautiful sports museum. He was so happy and seemed to be in good shape. He was just a little older than me. May God rest his soul.

Machine details:oh boy. Let aside iDS is not certified on 64bit Windows 7 (it works on mine, but that doesn't mean anything) - a Macbook running Windows? That doesn't sound right, at least from my perspective. If you followed the instructions carefully and you didn't get it running then maybe a VM is the only solution.

(ORACLE_HOME/BIN\frmbld.exe)Does your %ORACLE_HOME% have a space in the name? This could be the cause as well. If you decide to install in the Program Files folder, make sure you use the short name (PROGRA~1) for the directory instead of "Program Files". From a command prompt type "DIR /x" to get a listing with the "Short Names" to confirm the short name is correct.
